Thanks for the help on the pics, the advice on the CISA, and the warm welcome.

Well, what do you want to know about that old big padlock? It has the old style logo. During the years they changed it a few times. This is the first version and it's on the background of the 2015 catalog cover. The number engraved on the lock body looks like a security rating. The company that made it is CISA: Costruzione Italiana Serrature Affini, that means Italian maker of locks and alike. It was founded in Florence in 1926. This is the company website http://www.cisa.com/en/header/about_CISA.html If you have specific questions feel free to ask. Cheers

What you told me is some great info, much appreciated. Ya, that number is a security rating, but when I looked it up, it had that rating at the bottom of a list, so I wasn't sure if that was indicating low security or high. It's full of spools, that's about all I know. I picked it several times since I got it a couple days ago, but I'm not a pro....yet.

I don't know the model or keyway, but that lock seriously needs a cleaning if you intend to use it for anything. Changed your links to pictures to displaying the images for you.  Gordon
Just when you finally think you have learned it all, that is when you learn that you don't know anything yet.
